Atkinson's best game this season but given his others that is not saying much. Flanagan is still so ineffective with ball in hand. Has to go, no room for him at the club anymore.

To be fair, I think that’s the first time all year that both our 6 and 7 played straight and direct, made a huge difference attack wise and put the broncos defence under more pressure. Much better overall.

Our 1-5 all played their best games of the season, made plenty of meters and looked threatening. Fantastic performance right from the kick off and you could see the whole team was on the same page for once

He would have probably scored the first try if he hadn't slipped but quick thinking he looked up saw Holmes inside him and put him over for the high flying try.

I must say Holmes body language yesterday was a far cry on what it has been for most of the season, he played as if he owed not only the fans, his team mates but himself to finally put in and he did that which certainly played its part in our win.
Lets now back that up with a win against the sharks ......... My biggest fear is if they do win and win a couple more games here and there they will give the gig to Young ........

Any one better you have in mind mate if he does. I say give him a crack with a good roster next season, he deserves it given his loyalty and passion for the Red V.

Normally agree with a lot of things , but not this one ....... Have said before need someone completely outside the club that can't be influenced by the people already there ....... Passion he has , loyalty he has , but to be coach long term not quite sure ........ I hope he proves me wrong if given the job ....... But we don't want to make the same mistakes they have made over the last 10 years or so .......

You doom merchants. I had it correct, Luch had a heavily strapped leg so Deano was being cautious given we had the game in the bag. Eric Eric hes been better than just being in the top 17, been among our top three players all season. Has earned an extension.
I think the Couchmans and Stewart have been by far our best 3. Then Cook then Luch, IMO.

First ten mins showed me there was a turn around on the cards with firstly Val pulling off a vital tackle on his side then Suli saving a certain one on his side. Before yesterday that pair had been defensively vulnerable.
S Flanagan's decision to have them switch sides for some reason was a bad bad mistake, but who could have predicted it? Except maybe *gestures around generally* LITERALLY EVERYONE

Anyway, a very nice performance that is completely replicable - there's no reason they can't do it again and again. Physically dominant in collisions, winning the field position battle regularly, offloading the ball, playing direct up the middle. Keep it comin

We just can not be stupid to think that one win has changed everything. The backs are still not up to scratch and changes are coming ....good!

Our win was a team working hard for each other and Broncos were not. I would hate a knee-jerk appointment for Dean, we have done this before and extended and it backfires badly.

Honestly, at times yesterday I couldn't believe how badly the Broncos were playing. Then again, they were only as good as we allowed. The line speed and lack of missed tackles allowed us to run the ball for about 60m each set while restricting them to 40.
